To achieve model reuse, cognitive decision behaviors are usually implemented using a scripting language which is separate from the programming language used to implement simulation models. Therefore, it is desirable to establish a much better grounding ...

Cellular Automata (CA) models are represented as a collection of independent dynamical cells having some specific spatial relationship to each other. These tessellation automata can have simple to complex behaviors due to both individual cell behaviors ...

Computer Generated Forces (CGF) behavior modeling technology is the core of the CGF modeling technology, it can make the CGF entities show a certain degree of human behavior characteristics, with varying degrees of autonomy, reasoning ability and ...

Currently, the time management algorithms applied in various parallel discrete event simulation (PDES) engines take the logical process as the smallest parallel unit which corresponds to a physical process and represents a sequential simulation. Before ...

Design of next generation computer systems should be supported by simulation infrastructure that must achieve a few contradictory goals such as fast execution time, high accuracy, and enough flexibility to allow comparison between large numbers of ...

A simulation execution essentially depends on the initial condition, necessitating correct and efficient initialization. However, at present most of the initialization work is done manually, which leads to high costs and error-prone code. To solve this ...

The Opportunistic Network Environment (ONE) simulator is a Java based simulator intended for research in Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs). Apart from allowing users to simulate different DTN scenarios rapidly and in a versatile manner, it also offers an ...

As an important branch of simulation technology, realtime hardware-in-the-loop simulation has been widely used in industrial design and equipment testing. The current real-time simulation software is mostly based on proprietary systems or realtime ...

Real-time network simulation enables simulation to operate in real time, and in doing so allows experiments with simulated, emulated, and real network components acting in concert to test novel network applications or protocols. Real-time simulation can ...

The purpose of this paper is to provide a concise overview of existing virtual, augmented and mixed reality technologies and simulations in the context of higher education. Particularly, the technologies' pedagogical implications and merits for ...

The research described in this paper, focuses on a virtual reality headset system that integrates the Oculus Rift VR headset with a low cost Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to allow for drone teleoperation and telepresence using the Robot Operating System ...

The Internet of Things promises to revolutionise our lives but for all the largescale research into the field, one area has been neglected. This is the simple task of training staff to correctly place devices in an environment to create an ad-hoc ...

Congenital heart disease is the most common congenital abnormality affecting 8 per 1000 children. Children with univentricular circulation undergo three staged procedures, the last of which is a Fontan procedure. In some children, the anatomical ...

Endovascular surgery is a continually developing branch of vascular surgery where the therapeutic intervention is performed from within the lumen of the vessel, usually under X-ray guidance. When the major artery of the body (aorta) becomes swollen (...

Emerging technologies, such as virtual worlds, virtual reality, and augmented reality, may have the potential to facilitate cross-cultural collaboration between students from schools and universities in different countries and cultures. Due to the ...

In case of Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the image of an object is taken in all 3 directions. But, all the analysis and study based on MR images is carried out on 2D data, more precisely taking a single view at a time rather than considering all 3 ...

There is an increasing acceptance level of virtual reality nowadays, owing to their great participation mechanism and wide range of application, such as game, education, health care and military. In this paper, a practical algorithm is introduced and ...

Recommender system applies machine learning and focuses on solving the information explosion problem. The mainstream recommendation algorithms are: content based algorithm, collaborative filtering, and hybrid recommender system. All of them are facing ...

With the development of mobile internet technology, there have a enormous pontential in mobile advertisement. But how we use this recources becomes a big problem. Fortinately, we can use a recommendation to recommend the advertise for the peolpe the may ...

The term 'gamification' refers to the use of game elements in non-game environments like education, business, sales and marketing. The method of 'gamifying' has been applied in many different contexts and for many different reasons; for instance, in ...

Developing a verbal reasoning question recommendation system is an ideal way to help the GRE® test takers improve their verbal reasoning abilities by practicing questions more efficiently. As there are a great number of verbal reasoning practice ...

Football is one of the world's most favored sports with a huge amount of data that one could inspect, analyze and reach interesting conclusions. In this paper we analyze such football data made available through collecting via world football matches.. ...

Nowadays a common challenge is being confronted by IT service management in many companies, which is how to prompt IT service desks to continuously contribute and share knowledge to peers and organizations, transfer knowledge-centered IT service ...
